从双连搭捷运到淡水

From Double-Link to Fresh-Water by the Rapid Transit

车子进站的时候
阳光便争相来卡位
世界被压缩成
相扣的铁罐
稍纵即逝的景色

双连相连的车厢
却有不相连的旅程
从起站到终站
多少脸色与眼色交叉而过

前面就是石牌了
牌上究竟镌刻着些什么呢
是我踌躇
未酬的壮志吗

再下去就是
我挂满笔杆的红树林
那些曾是
我临过帖写过诗的
如今都交付大海了

到了淡水
竟是终站
太阳已更偏西
我的身影竟抢先去戏水了
淡水不淡
我的愁绪却是越晚越咸
咸到黑发都变灰
变白了

When the train enters a station
the sunlight rushes to jockey for position
The world is compressed into
interlocked tin-cans'
fleeting sight

Although cars are connected from Double-link
they in fact have separated journeys
From a starting point to the end station
How many faces and eyes have met
then passed by

Ahead it is Stone Plate station.
What exactly has been engraved on the plate?
Are they my hesitant
unfulfilled ambitions?

Continuing again it is 
the mangrove forest where I hung up penholders, 
full of them, it used to be
The calligraphy and poetry I copied and created
now have all been handed over to oceans.

When arriving at Fresh-water,
unexpectedly it is the terminal.
The sun clings more to the west
My figure is the first rushing to play with water.
Fresh-water is not fresh
yet my sorrow becomes salty, and saltier
until my black hair turns gray
turns white
